The Moon Luna Chapter 19: Baby Sitting
Addy’s POVI woke up feeling better. My ribs were still sore, but everything else had healed. I looked down at my arm and noticed there wasn’t even scaring. Thank the goddess. I was about to get up and go the bathroom for a shower when Tristan knocked on my bedroom door, before walking in.“Well, I am glad I am not naked.” I said in aggravated tone. He knows I hate it when people just walk into my room without my acknowledgement, and he does it just to irritate me.He gave me that annoying big brother smile, before he came over and sat down beside me on the bed. “I heard you move around; I have been waiting for you get up before I came up. So, I knew you weren’t naked, and well, that’s ewe.” He said with a laugh. I laughed at him and slapped his arm. “Yeah, that is definitely an ewe.”“How are you feeling today kiddo?” he asked, while looking down at the ground.“I am feeling okay.” I looked at him for a bit, before asking, “Tristan, are you okay? I know you are super prote
The Moon Luna Chapter 20: A Private Moment
Braxton’s POVI was standing under the willow tree with Addy. I don’t know why I lead her here. It just felt right when I guided her outside. We had so many memories under this tree where we would play as kids. It always gave us a sense of privacy under the sweeping canopy. I was looking down into her eyes, and everything in me was yelling to kiss her. I wanted to taste her lips so bad. Blaze was pacing and whining in my head. He has had as much trouble as I have with the thought of what would have happened if we didn’t get there in time.When she had told me Blaze was the last thing she saw before she fell unconscious and she knew she was safe, I felt him sit up proudly in my head. I felt entranced in those beautiful eyes as I told her. “I will always be there Addy. I will always protect you.” I meant it with every ounce of my heart. I still didn’t understand this feeling I had towards her, even Blaze was agreeing with always protecting her.As I battled my brain not to
The Moon Luna Chapter 21: Protection
Addy’s POVI spent the morning with Luna Maria. She had always been like a mom to me, and we had a lot of fun talking. I really have missed spending time with her. Right before lunch she said that Alpha Jack had summoned us to the office, and that he wanted to talk to me about something. I figured he would want to talk about the rouge attack, so I wasn’t surprised when I walked in and saw Gamma Blake, Aaron, Tristan, and Braxton there. Tristan stood up and held out his arms so I could walk over and give him a hug.I sat down between him and Aaron and waited for someone to start asking questions.“How are you feeling Little Moon?” Alpha Jack asked. “Much better Alpha.” I said and he raised his eyebrow at me. He always told me to call him Uncle Jack when we were not in front of pack members, I chuckled and repeated myself, correcting my term, “Much better Uncle Jack.” I said with a shy smile. He smiled widely and shook his head in approval. “Blake, you want to start?” Uncle Ja
The Moon Luna Chapter 22: Conditions
Addy’s POVBrax had his forehead against mine and our lips were almost touching. He was stern with me at first, but he didn’t scare me. It shocked me because I felt his pain. He was looking deeply into my eyes, pleading with me.“Please Addy, let me protect you. I don’t know if I could live without you.” My eyes grew wide with his words. I knew he was telling the truth; I could feel the sincerity in his voice. We can love others sure. Just like I loved Tristan, and life would be so hard for me without him, but the way Brax was saying this. The pain I heard in his voice; it was more intense. It was like it was spoken with love?I noticed his eyes start to change and I knew Blaze was pushing forward. I wasn’t scared, I could still feel Braxton’s pain almost like it was my own, but it wasn’t mine, it was his. It didn’t make any sense, but I could feel it.“Little moon, let us protect you. You are our heart, and without you we cannot thrive.” Blaze’s voice was mixed with Braxt
The Moon Luna Chapter 23: Hurt
Addy’s POVI woke up excited to finally get a semblance of my life back. Today, I would get to go back to school. I am still not allowed to train for a few more days, but I will at least get see my friends and get away from one-on-one babysitting. As I walk down the stairs, I hear laughter in the kitchen. I turn the corner to see all three boys drinking coffee while Tristan finishes up breakfast. “Good morning, Little Moon.” He said with a bright smile. I beamed back and stepped into his arms for a hug. “Good morning. So which lucky guy gets to take me to school today?” I was really hoping it wouldn’t be Braxton. I still don’t know how to handle the things that have been going on between us. I didn’t know if I could handle being alone with him right now.“Me! I want to do it! Pick Me!” Aaron started jumping around with his hand in the air like a child trying to be called on by a teacher.Tristan and I both laughed at him and his ridiculousness. “Aaron will be taking you t
The Moon Luna Chapter 24: Chosen Luna
Braxton’s POVI had tried avoiding to much eye contact with Addy. It had taken everything in me to not just wrap her up in my arms the moment she walked into the kitchen. I don’t know why my feelings are starting to get out of hand with her, maybe I need to put some space between us for a while. Right as we finished up, we heard the backdoor swing open, I knew immediately it was Gabby and Lizzy coming to ride to school with Addy.“GIRLY!!!” Gabby screams as she and Lizzy come flying through the door beaming at Addy. I watched as Addy wrapped both of them up into a hug. I couldn’t help but smile. I was so thankful she had friends that cared so much for her. I wasn’t really listening to what they were saying until I felt eyes on me.I looked up and noticed that Gabby and Lizzy where both looking at me with disgust. I raised at an eyebrow confused as to why they were looking at me that way. “Rumors about our dear Alpha choosing his Luna.” I heard Gabby explain. I spit out my c
The Moon Luna Chapter 25: Cafeteria Drama
Addy’s POVHearing about the rumors this morning really put me into a mood for most of the day. I couldn’t shake the pain in my heart over hearing Brax might be taking someone as a chosen. I know it’s none of my business, and I am not sure why it bothers me so bad but hearing that felt like my heart was breaking. The girls could tell I wasn’t in much a mood today. Gabby was pretty upset herself from Brax trying to pull the whole Alpha male on her, so we stayed close today, but we didn’t talk much. I was relieved when the bell rang for lunch, and all three of us were headed to the cafeteria. I had noticed a few extra guards on duty at the school, but none were personally following me around so that was a relief. “Today is seriously dragging,” Lizzy said as she drug along with us to the cafeteria.“I know right, it has been the longest day ever and its only lunch time. Ug, and I am not in the mood to listen to the teachers drone on forever.” Gabby was still upset and it was defi
The Moon Luna Chapter 26: Fixing the Mistake
Braxton's POVAfter my talk with my mom. I was determined to take care of this rumor problem, and that needed to start with Baylee. I had to deal with her first, before I could focus on my feelings with Addy and figuring out how to explore those.As I sat in my office trying to work while milling over how to stop the rumors and put Baylee in her place once and for all, Tristan and Aaron came in and sat down without a word.I looked up with them sheepishly. Maybe before I deal with Baylee, I need to apologize to my best friends and future Beta and Gamma. They both had a petard look on their face, and I knew I deserved it.“I need to apologize to you both.” I started and then turned my eyes to Aaron. “I should have never yelled at Gabby. My anger was not directed at her, and I failed her as a friend, as a brother, and as her future alpha when I did that to her. I will apologize, directly to her today. There is no excuse for my behavior. I was to thank you Aaron. You stood up to

The Moon Luna Chapter 52: Gone
Braxton’s POVEmily came back 30 minutes before the doctor released Tristan. I was hoping to see Addy and try to talk her into come home with me tonight, but she never showed up. I felt like it was kind of odd, but Emily assures us she had left to run errands and was probably just taking longer than expected. I wonder if she is purposely not coming to avoid me. “You Good man?” I look up to see Tristan eyeing me. “Yeah, yeah I am fine. Just…thinking, that’s all.”“Why do you keep rubbing at your chest? Did you get hurt out there too?” His question had everyone in the room turning towards me. I didn’t even notice until he pointed it out, that I had been rubbing at my chest. “Nah man. I am good. Just feeling a little tight, I guess.” I respond. I don’t really know how to explain this sensation that I have been feeling for the last hour or so, it’s like a line is being pulled tight in my heart. I reach up and rub again, right as the Doc walks in.He eyes me for a second, scrunc
The Moon Luna Chapter 51: Runaway
Addy’s POVMy mouth dropped at the conversation. They have been hiding so much from me. All of this is because of me. All these attacks…it’s because they are after me. And now...now…Oh my gosh, everyone is in danger, everyone I love, my entire pack, our entire region, is in danger…. because of me. I start backing away from the room, trying to breath, I know that an anxiety attack is coming. I am struggling for breath, but I can’t let them know I am here. I have to think, I have to figure out what to do. I run out of the hospital as fast as I can, trying to make sure no one notices me. I run out to the forest, and I am about to shift when I remember what they said. Shifting will put my pack in danger again. I take deep breaths, walking a little further away, before leaning up against a tree. I drop down beside it, pulling my knees up to my chest, letting the tears fall.Aurora, what do we do? I don’t know Addy. I know we are powerful but putting others in danger…we don’t
The Moon Luna Chapter 50: Danger
Braxton’s POVAfter the girls leave, we spend time just eating and relaxing. We don’t get straight into the nitty gritty of what happened, first I need to just spend some time knowing my best friend is okay. The last two days have been hell. My first night with my mate was ripped from me, I almost lost my best friend, I found out some crazy Alpha is after my mate, and they know where to find her, and she is still refusing to talk to me. I know I betrayed her, but I didn’t know what else to do. I had to protect her and thank fucking goddess I did. If she had been out there, the rouges would have known for sure. She won’t listen to me, so I am hoping with Tristan awake now, she will listen to him.Tristan breaks me from my thoughts when he clears his throat and I look up seeing him with his eyebrow raised. “So, you want to explain to me what the hell is going on with you and my sister?”“She’s, my mate.” I respond, not really sure I am ready to divulge what I did. I am sure he w

I haven’t even left to eat, the girls, are taking turns coming to bring us food. Braxton and Aaron have come by, but other than Braxton helping me through my panic attack that first night, I haven’t spoken to him or allowed him near me.My emotions are all over the place and I am exhausted. I haven’t slept well, scared my nightmares will return. I can’t seem to stomach food, and my heart is hurting so badly. Knowing how close I was to losing Tristan, feeling the loss of the first night with my mate, feeling betrayed by my mate and one of my best friends. It’s constricting my heart and I am on edge.I can feel my eyes drifting close, exhaustion finally starting to win out. Right as I decide to let myself succumb to sleep I feel a squeeze on my hand. I squeeze back out of reflex, holding tight, like maybe this hand is holding
The Moon Luna Chapter 48: Hurt
Hurt Addy’s POV “Addy, Tristan was hurt. He is in surgery…” I didn’t even let him finish his words before I pushed past him and started running towards the hospital. My mind was in a complete frenzy as I took off down the stairs and out the back door. I was still scared to know about Braxton and the girls. Praying everyone was alright, but right now, I had to get to my brother. Right as I ran through the back door, I run directly into a hard chest. I stumbled back a few steps, as large arms wrapped around me. I looked up into Braxton’s eyes. My fear immediately changed into anger, before I could even think about what I was doing. I took a step back, out of his arms, and I flung my arm connecting a sharp slap to his cheek. “You are an asshole.” I didn’t wait for a response, before turning on my heels and heading straight to the hospital. I had to get to my brother. He had to be okay. He just had to be. I couldn’t lose him too. I got the hospital quickly, and as soon as
The Moon Luna Chapter 47: The Fight
Braxton’s POVI stand there looking at the door, listening to her yell at me, “Braxton! Don’t you dare!” I put my hand on the door and whisper to her, “I love you, Moon.” I turn back towards the door to see Aaron standing there with his arms crossed. “You know she is going to kill you right?”I grunt at him as I stride past him. “I don’t have a choice; this is the only way to protect her. We have to protect her at all costs.” “Never said I didn’t agree with protecting her, but she is going to kill you. If we don’t die before that.” He shrugs at me as we step onto the back patio of the packhouse. The decorations are still up from Addy’s party, I was about to mate and mark her before this, now it’s all been taken away. My anger intensifies as I think about how these scum of the earth rouges interrupted my first night with my mate. “She will get over it.” I growl as I pull my shirt off and drop my pants to shift, not fully convinced I will get over what has been taken away from
The Moon Luna Chapter 46: Locked Away
Addy’s POVI threw on some clothes and came barreling out of the room. Aaron looks panicked as he looks over at me behind Brax’s shoulder. Brax turns towards me, with anger in his eyes. I know its not directed at me, but a shiver still runs down my spine.“What do we know?” I ask as I walk up beside Brax.“You are going to go to the safe room and stay there until this over. Tristan is already leading the front lines. We…”“I’m sorry, What!?” I cut him off. I didn’t give a shit at this moment if he was my mate or my alpha. Right now, he was just being a jerk. “Addy, you can’t be out there.” I could see the tension in his body, and we were wasting time standing here talking.“The hell I can’t!” I start walking pass them both out into the hallway. There was no way he was going to stop me. I was one of our top warriors before I got my wolf, now having her, I was even stronger. I had only taken a few strides down the hallway when I was lifted into the air and thrown over a shoul
The Moon Luna Chapter 45: Mates
Braxton’s POVWe had been traveling for over 12 hours. We left early this morning to get back in plenty of time for Addy’s party, only to be met with every road washed away or completely blocked by debris. Aaron and I traveled to the north side of the territory where we would find the only roads that lead back into our territory that were not washed away. Cell service was spotty at best up here, so I wasn’t even able to send out any calls or text messages. We were just a few miles out of our territory before I was able to get enough service to text Tristan. Braxton: Just a few miles out. Is the party over?Tristan: Yeah, just finished up. Braxton: Shit. Did Addy go home or is she staying at the pack house?Tristan: She’s staying at the packhouse tonight. Braxton: Thanks man. I will see you tomorrow.Tristan: See you tomorrow. Good LuckI couldn’t bite back my smile. The thought of being able to wrap Addy up in my arms tonight made me want to jump out of this truck and shift
The Moon Luna Chapter 44: The Party
Addy’s POVI squinted my eyes open with bright light beaming into my room. I rolled over to look at the clock and noticed it was already noon. I blinked my eyes, trying to see if I was reading the clock correctly when a knock sounded on my door. I looked up towards the door to see Emily stepping in quietly.“Good afternoon, Sunshine,” she beamed at me. “Did you sleep well?”I rubbed my eyes, before sitting up and smiling back at her. “Yes, very well. You were not joking about how the first shift is exhausting.” I mumbled through my grogginess.“It gets better. The next time you shift it won’t take as much energy.” She supplies walking further into the room, sitting down on the edge of the bed.“So, today is a big day,” She smiles at me. I give her a small smile, still groggy and my heart slumps at the thought of what I was missing. “Is Braxton and Aaron back?” I can’t help the words from tumbling out of my mouth. I am trying not to sound disappointed, but I miss them, I miss
